I think that in order for work to be done, the object must move in the direction of the force and move over a distance.
That would be
0 degrees Celsius aka the melting point of water.... If you look at the diagram I attached you notice that at 0 degrees Celsius it is flat, this is because much heat is needed at this point for water to rise to 1 degree... It is the same for the boiling point (100)<span />
Answer:
-0.045 N, they will attract each other
Explanation:
The strength of the electrostatic force exerted on a charge is given by

where
q is the magnitude of the charge
E is the electric field magnitude
In this problem,

(negative because inward)
So the strength of the electrostatic force is

Moreover, the charge will be attracted towards the source of the electric field. In fact, the text says that the electric field points inward: this means that the source charge is negative, so the other charge (which is positive) is attracted towards it.
